Respiratory rate is a fundamental vital sign that is sensitive to different pathological
conditions (eg, adverse cardiac events, pneumonia, and clinical deterioration) and stressors …

Radiotherapy (RT) aims to deliver a spatially conformal dose of radiation to tumours while
maximizing the dose sparing to healthy tissues. However, the internal patient anatomy is …

The integration of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for guidance in external beam
radiotherapy has faced significant research and development efforts in recent years. The …

Respiratory motion introduces substantial uncertainties in abdominal radiotherapy for which
traditionally large margins are used. The MR-Linac will open up the opportunity to acquire …

High precision conformal radiotherapy requires sophisticated imaging techniques to aid in
target localisation for planning and treatment, particularly when organ motion due to …

Motion represents one of the major challenges in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Since
the MR signal is acquired in frequency space, any motion of the imaged object leads to …

Over the last few decades, deformable image registration (DIR) has gained popularity in
image‐guided radiation therapy for a number of applications, such as contour propagation …

Statistics for Biomedical Engineers and Scientists: How to Analyze and Visualize Data
provides an intuitive understanding of the concepts of basic statistics, with a focus on solving …

Radioembolization is an established treatment for chemoresistant and unresectable liver
cancers. Currently, treatment planning is often based on semi-empirical methods, which …

Background and purpose Anatomical changes during external beam radiotherapy prevent
the accurate delivery of the intended dose distribution. Resolving the delivered dose, which …
